Hi, does anyone have a simple solution to protecting images from being seen for free by visitors to opendirviewer.com ?

Many thanks for all your help with this.

mod rewrite via htaccess. put an image with some text on it "visit soandso.com for this image"

Thanks for the advice. I'll need to wait for my programming guy to tell me what to change the htaccess to, but at least I know how it's done now.

Thanks again for your help.

www.htaccesstools.com should help you get started

Give this a try until he fixes it for you..

Deny from opendirviewer.com
Deny from www.opendirviewer.com

Great - I used the generator at htaccesstools.com to block hotlinking and got it to work, so anyone using OpenDirViewer can't see the images.

However, it gives the URL of the folder where all of the images are stored, and so it's still pretty simple for anyone to go to the folder and click on them all individually.

Is there a quick way that I can stop people going directly to the following folder?

escorts-latvia.com/images/girls/

I tried adding "deny ..." to the htaccess, but couldn't get that to work.

Many thanks again for all your help with this.

To stop directory or folder view, add this to your htaccess as well

Options -Indexes

Many, many thanks for the advice Quickdraw.

If you are ever in Latvia, I definitely owe you a drink!

Just put an index.html file in the folder with an ad on it.
